Calgary Vipers trade player for 10 baseball bats →

It seems Odom had a “minor” but unspecified criminal record that wasn’t revealed to immigration officials before they scanned his passport, Vipers president Peter Young said.

WatchNew Hillman Curtis Video :: Lawrence Weiner Of particular intrest to me are Weiner’s thoughts on Helvetica: It’s totally authoritative. It, in effect, does not adapt itself to things and all information that comes out of Helvetica is saying the same thing. It’s telling you that this is cultural, this is intellectual, and this is intellegent. I’m rather afriad that words...
